My Boy Nunes Still Doing Work
Posted on 6/5/17 at 2:19 pm

No he hasn't disappeared. He is going to get to the bottom of the unmasking scandal. Some recent quotes:
Asked if former FBI director James Comey has obstructed the investigation into the unmaskings, Nunes was blunt.
Nunes did not finish that thought.
He also mentioned the ambassador Samantha Power (though he didn't name her specifically) and said that it would be "highly unusual" for any ambassador to unmask American names, yet it appears Obama ambassadors were doing just that.

quote:
“The subpoenas,” Nunes explained, “actually went to the NSA, the CIA, and the FBI, requesting specifically, of those three individuals that were named, the unmaskings they have done, that they did, from the time period of 2016, the entire year, leading up to Jan. 20 of this year.”
quote:
“I can’t get into why we chose those individuals, but clearly this is just further escalation in the concern we have of the unmaskings of Americans by the senior leaders of the Obama administration. Americans that didn’t know about it, and, of course, potentially Trump transition officials.”
quote:
“We’ve been waiting since March 15 for that information. The intelligence agencies have been slow-rolling us, which is what led to these three subpoenas being issued.”
quote:
“So I’m not going to get into what I know at this point, but I can tell you we would not be asking this if we didn’t have probable cause that there was an abuse of power.”
Asked if former FBI director James Comey has obstructed the investigation into the unmaskings, Nunes was blunt.
quote:
“It’s unknown at this point. We will see whether or not the FBI produces the unmaskings that were done by these three individuals. If the FBI continues to not provide the information to Congress—or the NSA or CIA, for that matter—”
Nunes did not finish that thought.

I'll keep saying it.
Barack Obama was the biggest thug in US political history.

Unmasking is perfectly legal. Good luck to Nunes. Especially now that Mueller is probably investigating him.

Nunes own committee unmasked more individuals than the agencies in question

Unmasking is perfectly legal.
It's just like shooting somebody.
Sometimes it's legal. Sometimes it's illegal.
BUT IT IS ALWAYS INVESTIGATED!

Just saying, Nard, that it would be just as hard to prove that unmasking was illegal as it would be proving that Trump was obstructing justice. The gray area is just too big. And I did stay at a holiday Inn express last night.

Yeah, guess we'll be waiting for a little while longer before we hear any response on this fact.

Perhaps we can start with a link backing the assertion.

Not political opponents in the middle of a fricking election and they did not pass whatever they found indiscriminately and I do not believe you are telling the truth anyway

There, though I can't keep up with what is or isn't a fake news location anymore. Just going by Jjdoc's choice of website, The Hill.
Main Article on WaPo
More at that link, but I know it's the "fake news" WAPO
The meat of the subject, in case you don't want to give clicks

According to a tally by U.S. spy agencies, the House Intelligence Committee requested five to six unmaskings of U.S. organizations or individuals related to Drumpf or Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton between June 2016 and January 2017. Officials familiar with the matter said that the committee’s requests focused on the identities of U.S. organizations that had been hacked by the Russians in 2016. Officials declined to say how many of the requests came from Democrats vs. Republicans. The chairman of the committee wields enormous control over the actions of its members and requests for more information from intelligence agencies. Officials said that committee rules require the chairman to sign off on the requests, even ones that are not his own.

LoneMDG, do you see the problem(s) with the claim?

gasp, exact details weren't given, it must all be bullshite!

Nunes is a shrimp of a man, and was roped by the Trump admin to the obstruction of justice scandal on Russia. You arse lickers are missing the point -- Trump and his team are dirty and totalitarian, and didn't understand that the US has laws and obstruction of justice is against one of them. His tax returns will one day showcase his financial ties to friends of Vlad and he just might go down. The unmasking is minor stuff compared to Cheney to outright via Scooter Libby unmasked a CIA operative, Plame, that costed people their lives.

That is a wall of kook inspired bullshite
There is nothing regarding the Russian bullshite to obstruct
